What do you guys think that the odds are of getting another direct ? We don't have anything to speculate about.
And it sucks that serebii writes on the main page - 'Back to slow news period'

I don't think we'll be getting other Pokemon Directs. Directs are often done to announce a game.
Instead, we now have to rely on trailers possibly revealed in Smash, and official site updates for any gameplay video updates.

Look more closely. While it isn't exactly perfectly aligned, it's still enough for *hrmhrmhrmhrm* (censored area due to various reasons). Anyways, on topic, I'm looking forward to seeing more animated trailers should they continue them. Part of me though wishes they could turn those trailers, (or the Mystery Dungeon Specials), into a full-fledged anime, as I'm a huge anime fan (from To Aru to Naruto to Kuro Usagi) and while watching the current anime in Japanese, I'm still pretty disappointed in it and would rather prefer these other animations that have SO much POTENTIAL. Anyways, hopefully in future trailers they make them animated and I'm also looking forward to more reveals via trailer.

Yeah I'm praying for more info soon...
The forums alone have slowed down soooo much...
There's absolutely nothing to talk about anymore than hasn't already been speculate to death.

Indeed, everyone keeps repeating the same thing over and over which is why I haven't really been on some of these threads unless it was about some new rumor. We're all needing something new to talk about hopefully we'll get something in the next couple of weeks.

The 3D graphics have nothing to do with the fact that we may or may not get an anime styled trailer. Gerally FMV movies like that are out sourced to an entirely different company that specializes in it. The people responsible for making the game look the way it does have nothing to do with the people that would potentially animate such a trailer.

Lets hope that Black 2 and White 2 were the first games of an ever lasting trend.

CoroCoro isn't that far away, whatever is in it we'll get it around the 12th, should probably get another trailer around then too, if they want to flesh out some things a little more like they did with Slyveon. Eventually they will release a bulk of info, and it'll keep everyone busy for a while.

What I can say about the trailer... Gosh, its the time for real 3D graphics, lets go! Also, I'm really happy to see that pokemon models are made in cell shading cause the 3D Pokedex models are IMO lame as not-fresh banana :P Cell shading makes the pokemon closer to "anime-look" style which is good I think.
I hope that there will be BIG gyms in X and Y (just like in anime for example).

What I dont like in trailer is:

a) No Antialiasing
b) Not too much details on route 3. Look at the ground. Theres only some flat table with texture.

Exactly, we can't expect everything to be picture perfect at this moment. There was a great improvement when comparing D/P to B2/W2 and both were amazing at their own.

Yea, plus first of all, both the first trailer and sylveon trailers SPECIFICALLY said game footage not final. So there might be some improvement on graphics from now till october. Second, the footage was calibrated for the screen to NOT be 3d, and non 3d versions of games, from what I've gotten, don't look as good as the 3d version turned on. And probably on the third game version, and remakes if we get any, we'll get major graphic enhancements since they gotten use to the 3DS.

I know, it'd just be nice to hear some sort of noise. I'm one of those weirdos who love Bangs and Pops and stuff.

I'm suprised, yet not at the same time, the music wasn't used in battle...

That surprised me too.
Well, it's obvious that they don't want to spoil the battle music and the kind of arrangement they've done for the game.
But knowing GF and their awesome musicians, pretty sure this game will offer another great soundtrack.

Maybe by that time 3DS will enable personal music playing while playing games.

That seems doubtful to me. Why on earth would GameFreak make ten different battle soundtracks just so that we can personalize it? It's not that important, and I don't even think I would like it very much. It would be interesting for the first five minutes, but after that it would get a little old, wouldn't it?

What i found interesting is that besides the Paris background it looks like your character may be customizable. At one point in the trailer he had sunglasses but at another point he didn't O.o then it looks like instead of adjacent type movement you're allowed to freeroam (i bet there's a name for it but i cant think of it xD)
